According to the Baltimore Sun, the tweet was sent to Smith by Patriots fan and Baltimore resident Katie Moody, posting as @katiebrady12. The tweet read, “Hey, Smith, how about you call your bro and tell him all about your wi----ohhh Wait. #TooSoon?” Smith’s brother, Tevin Jones, was killed in a weekend motorcycle accident.

People went ballistic on Twitter, sending Moody vulgar messages and wishing her harm. Contact information for a supervisor at her place of employment was also posted. Moody switched her Twitter account to private and declined comment to the Sun.

Before switching her account, Moody did post an apology on Twitter that read, “I apologized and meant it. … I just can’t control if people think I’m really sorry. I’m currently getting death threats and people posting my home address.”

Smith has not responded to Moody’s tweet. Ravens running back Ray Rice did, posting, “smh, u are terrible. I hope you know the word karma."
